After escorting the guests to the banquet hall, Payton and I were heading to my bedroom to change into my second dress.
Suddenly, I heard the sound of the back door’s keypad lock being disengaged.
I had only shared the code with two people—Zeke and Hendrick.
One winter, I had caught a terrible cold and wasn’t recovering. Zeke and Hendrick had been frantic but didn’t want to visit directly. So, they tried sneaking into my house by climbing over the wall, nearly getting caught by the police. That was when I decided to give them the back door code.
